I’m primarily in the exJW subreddit because I was raised a Jehovah’s Witness. I’m interested in cults in general, though, so I post in the cults subreddit, too.

I was shallow when I started dating my wife, but when I realized just how much effort you have to put in to keep a relationship alive, you start to focus on your social skills a whole lot more.
If your marriage ever goes on the rocks, keep me in mind.

I'm still struggling to understand that people actually can look at a person and feel attracted to them. I think I must be some kind of asexual. I used to think it was just an expression, exaggeration, joke, something besides people being literal about just seeing a person and wanting to be with them. I get it that some (probably most) people do feel and experience actual physical attraction, but I am not one of them. It seems a really weird and irrelevant thing to be concerned with when considering someone for a partner.
Males tend to be very visual.
The most traffic on the internet is porn.
Testosterone has a LOT to do with sexual interests, in males.
"Women are from Venus...
And men are from Mars..."
It is simply an evolutionary quirk.
It was evidently a "survival of the species advantage" in humanity's early history in particular.
And it is simply a NATURAL part of life.
You may as well be outraged at predators killing for food to survive.
Life is not pretty...
But it is what it is...
Having said that, social de-emphasis on looks is a positive thing, imo.
But not to the point of our denying our understanding who/what we are.
Being an avid student of understanding human psychology, I can see it is important to be honest with ourselves.
Political Correctness and woke ideology simply encourage dissociation from the realities of life.
And how is psychological confusion a good thing in any form?
Not a fan of social brainwashing.
The skunk has spoken.
